Summer Boarding.
Our Countru Home.

"Country living and country think
ing" in the abstract, grows more attrac-
tive each season to the sewer-poisoned
denizen of the city; but the reality falls
SO far short of the ideal that bitter is
the disappointment when one finds that
fresh milk and plenty of vegetables
form no part of the farmers idea of
country living"
1t has been a curious study to see the
farmers table set with bakers bread for
breakfast and tea, and dinners served
with scantiness of.vegetableS that no
mechanic in the city would tolerate.
On some farms it has been found
that the kitchen garden was deemed ga
foolish, citifed notion" Butter, eggs
and milk did not find market on the
home table. Potatoes, grain and beans
were the only products of the garden;
even the beans were not to be eaten
green but kept for baking! No sweet
corn for the table was raised, but now
and then a "mess or two of field corn
was used." The farmers, between hoe
ing-time and harvest, went fishing, or
slept on the barn floor and deplored
"the new noshins that are creeping in
amongst the wimmin folks-idees got
from, city hna rdars - o-
Speaking of farmhouse full OF
boarders, one man says to another,
"Have you seen the garden Sam Hyer
has oot this summer? It's a beauty,
tell ye-peas, beets, lettuce, cabbage,
inions, limy beans, an sich corn ye
never seen in all yer born days"
"Yis; I've seen it," said one of
these self-satisfed men, contemptuously,
"but Just think what it's a-goin' to cost
him-them tu boys have worked in it
nigh about all summer. 1t don't pay,
now | tell yet cost more'n it's wuth
to have garden"
Now Sans wife was boarding Getty
folks" at five dollars week and no
laundering done. Her two boys might
have loafed and fshed, or hunted, these
same "between WHILE" and not been
considered otherwise than call right.
This garden rendered the salt fish and
pork endurable to these boarders, and
supplied the place of the meat that
could not be obtained. 1t strikes me
the boys were doing more, in trying to
give the boarders something satisfying
for their five dollars, than they would
in loafng and giving the city folks
fried pork, sugar gingerbread and
tea.
The poverty of many tables is laziness
upon the part of the executor. Such a
man would probably think it extrava-
CANT to "salt" even ga two year old. "
Whilst our idea is that where pasturage
is cheap the calves are worth raising tor
the table. if nothing more.

For Peace Among Men.

I find we're almost sure to get
The full amount of misery we earn,
We then bewail-bewail, because we feel
Our own sharp weapons on their quick return.
Throughout the world, among the high and low,
There's great complaining of reflected woe.
Men frown, then wonder that SO many scowl;
They're rough, then sigh that other tongues are
foul;
They slander, and the slander is returned;
They spurn, then ponder why it is they're spurned
They strike, and learn some blood will never yield
Then here we have a little battle field.
How clearly is the corollary shown
They reap according to the seed they've sown.
When you confront the prejudicial hate,
Here is the best way to retaliate
So live that ev'ry foe can plainly see
His hate is founded on a falsity.
When writhing from the words that sting and burn,
So act that sober reason may return.
That sober reason may soon prove your friend,
And sign peace enduring to the end.

excellent qualities attest the truth of
these assertions2 Marriage has always
been lottery, and is likely to remain
so. If a little of the sentimental was
left out in mans association with wo-
man, he might have better chance to
bestow his heart where his judgment
directed. The two must 60 together,
to prove happy, permanent fixture
Those who think that getting married
will lift them above the woes of the
world, and they can henceforth take up
their abode among the stars, will find
themselves grievously mistaken. Then
is just when the ups and downs begin.
1t is Christening process good for us to
go through to drive out self and learn
that we must live in kind Difference for
others wants.
would not cast a shadow in the
path of the trusting young, nor wake
them from their sweet dream of we'd
ded bliss; but the sooner they prepare
for the breakers ahead, the better for
them. There are narrowing cares and
Affections more than the young can i'm
agine, that sap the sweet out of existence
and require great deal of heavenly
grace to bear. I have looked, in my
minds eye,. over vast number of mar
ried pairs l have known, and not one
but has had some visible source of keen
sorrow, while the unseen and untold
has probably been greater and harder
to bear.
The founding of new and happy
home is one of the most laudable am
bitions a young man can have. 1
would like to extend my hand across
the wide scope of country to my young
friend who has sought my advice, and
give him a word of praise. I cannot
think of more Improbable servant in
the Masters vineyard than bachelor.
How can man, who is man, be con-
tent to look to some other mans wife
or daughter to provide his home com
forts and darn his heels. How little,
how shriveled, how insignificant man
must feel who has no lawfully constitu-
say "My dear, here is a button just
come off," I should not like my house
cluttered with bachelor. Hehas never
provided home and protection for any
woman why should I be bothered
with him? Let him sew on his own
buttons until he has courage to do as
my husband did, as my distant friend
proposes to do. How cowardly, to be
afraid to get married! What are few
tribulations We must have them in
all situations, but if the matrimonial
house is built on the Christian rock,
disturbance may creep in and jostle and
shake, but cannot overthrow. There
it will stand, one of the best of the
worlds forts.

The D,ektnson Art Lectures.

The prospect of Prof. Dickinson's
course of illustrated lectures at the Y.
NJ. c.. A. is exciting a strong interest in
this city. The quality of these lectures
is shown by the notices they have re-
ceived in San Francisco, where they
were last given, brief extracts from some
of which are given below: Speaking OF
the lecture on Rome, the "Call'' says !:
''Rome has always held out enticing
hands to the lover of art, but never per-
haps was the wealth and beauty of her
possessions gained better knowledge of
outside her own walls, than by those
who attended this lecture" The Exam
iner" says: sit is altogether an enter
tainment OF very high character, and in
every way worthy the patronage and en-
enlargement of all lovers of art"
The first lecture will be given this
evening at z 80 o'clock on Belgium, Hol-
land and st. Petersburg.
